Plummer sentencing set for Nov. 2

Branden Plummer will be sentenced on Nov. 2, according to court documents.

Last week, Plummer, 21, pleaded guilty to willful injury, a class D felony, and interference with official acts inflicting bodily injury, an aggravated misdemeanor for assaulting Iowa City police Sgt. Brian Krei on Nov. 18. Plummer is accused of choking Krei and slamming his head against the sidewalk during the early morning hours of Nov. 18, 2011.

The two offenses carry a potential sentence of up to seven years in prison. However, Assistant Johnson County Attorney Anne Lahey said the state agreed to suspend the five-year sentence for willful injury and will seek 60 days in jail for the interference charge. Plummer will be credited for the 30 days he previously served in jail.

Plummer will be placed on probation and could face prison time if he violates the terms of his probation, Lahey said after the hearing.
